The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX230-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 230mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X230-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 220-230 mm usable travel window, letting you dial back the nominal 230 mm stroke by up to 10 mm during commissioning. In this bore size, the cylinder generates 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and 18095 N at 0.9 MPa, making it suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This SKU is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance. It uses PT tapered ports (G3/4) and includes variable air cushions at both ends. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, though this specific configuration does not include a magnet for electronic or reed switch sensing.

Dial in the exact 220-230 mm end-stop during machine setup to ensure heavy pressing operations strike the material at the precise depth every cycle.
Quickly trim the stroke by up to 10 mm on a packaging line when switching to a slightly shorter product, avoiding the need to swap out the entire cylinder.
Use the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa to seat large components, relying on the rear adjuster to fine-tune the final position without external spacers.
Select this 160 mm bore adjustable-stroke cylinder when an application requires precise end-position tuning without adding external stops. If your force needs are lower, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 8590 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. Because the 230 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm only marginally, side-load risks are moderate, but an external guide is still recommended for heavy loads. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop for fine-tuning, not as a lock; for load-holding without live air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 160 mm bore, 230 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and SUS304 rod material.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 230 mm down to 220 mm. It is used for fine-tuning the retract end position at commissioning without swapping the cylinder.
